Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu was reportedly warned twice about Qatari funds being used to finance Hamas's military wing. The warnings came in 2019 and 2020 from the Shin Bet chief and the IDF's Military Intelligence Directorate. Netanyahu's office denies receiving any warning about the funds being used for terrorist activity. Qatar has been providing cash to Gaza since 2018, with the payments coming under scrutiny after the recent war in Gaza.
